On July 19, 2022, AWS released Cloudscape Design System as open source. Cloudscape is a solution for building intuitive user experiences. It offers guidelines to create web applications, along with the design resources and front-end components to streamline implementation.
NorthStar v2 (@aws-northstar/ui) improves upon the previous version by leveraging Cloudscape Design System and with updates to the existing components with new features that make the development experience even better.
NorthStar legacy (aws-northstar), released in October 2020, was built using Material UI v4 as its base and provided approximately 50 components for building prototyping user experience. This version entered maintenance on April 1, 2023.
During the maintenance phase, NorthStar legacy will only receive critical bug fixes and security patches. New features will be exclusively developed for NorthStar v2. On April 1, 2024, support will end for NorthStar legacy.
Refer to the Migration tabs in the documentation website for more information on how to migrate NorthStar legacy to v2.
